Plasma 6 Release Candidate 1 has landed.
We are less than 50 days away from the final version of #Plasma6.
Along with Frameworks 6 and KDE Gear 24.02, the Megarelaease on the 28th of February will be one of the biggest and more complex upgrades in KDE’s history.
One more RC will be released on the 31st of January and then it will be (hopefully) clear sailing until the final release.
IMPORTANT
Please note that release candidates, although often called “sneak peeks”, are still work in progress and must be installed and used with extreme care. They will contain bugs, some of which may still be critical. Do not use this software in production environments. Use for testing only.

Two more that didn’t make it over from mastodon:
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social
“one of the biggest and more complex upgrades in KDE’s history”…there was four… and then all of a sudden there was five… it was so confusing and… I think… now it never stops!!! 😣 😫 😭
5 came out… TEN YEARS AGO. I would not call that break neck speed that would give you update whiplash.
I read on Mastodon that the tablet support was subpar as of a month ago. Is it still ? see https://mastodon.art/@raghukamath/111566624907293129 There seem to be quite a few regressions linked to Wayland if I understand correctly
@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Will it be on SteamOS?
Eventually, I guess. Plasma 5.27 didn’t make it until last November tho, so it’ll take a while.
